there is a secret on the ground near the trees, which looks like several concentric squares when viewed in first-person view:

I cannot for the life of me figure it out, can anyone shed some light on it please?

These are decorative Easter eggs, not a puzzle. Your map node is white most likely because you have another room to find. (Perhaps this one.)

The concentric squares have no bearing on the game or its completion. There are many of them scattered around with different numbers of rings: in Gomez's village (1), atop the broken arch stage (2), atop the bell stage (3), on the 4-cube door's floor (5), atop the waterfall stage (6), on the 16-cube door's temple-under-construction ledge (7), and on the same ledge in the temple warp zone (8), for example.
